Richard Schaefer on being chosen Promoter of The Year by Sports Illustrated: “In the end, this is all about the fans of our great sport and I will continue to deliver the best fights and fighters to them in 2014 and beyond.”

Most of the fighters involved in the Adrien Broner-Marcos Maidana, Leo Santa Cruz-Cesar Seda, Keith Thurman-Jesus Soto Karass and Beibut Shumenov-Tamas Kovacs matchups promised fireworks on Saturday at The Alamodome in San Antonio.

Adrien Broner: “After me and Paulie Malignaggi fought, they felt like I beat a nobody, but that’s okay. When you see what I do to Chino Maidana on Saturday night, then I guesss that he’ll be a nobody, too.”

Adrien Broner’s trainer Mike Stafford said the undefeated WBA welterweight beltholder is going to “make Marcos to Maidana look so bad, that he’s going to look like an amateur” during their showdown in San Antonio on Saturday.

Paulie Malignaggi discusses his relationship with Al Haymon and the possibility of fighting the winner of this Saturday’s WBA welterweight title bout between Adrien Broner and Marcos Maidana, as well as 140-pound champ Danny Garcia.

Zab Judah says he means business when he faces Paulie Malignaggi on Saturday: “At the end of the day, this is like the old Roman days. The only thing that I can’t do is behead him, I can only knock him out.”

Adrien Broner talks about his early introduction to boxing in Showtimes All Access: Broner vs. Maidana, which premiere’s on Saturday: “My family, they’ve been putting the boxing gloves on me since I was about 4 years old.”
